Police are asking for help to find a man who robbed a gold-buying jewellers, one of the Ledesma chain, in Cabo Blanco yesterday evening. Police say that the thief, who has a Moroccan look, dragged the store’s owner, throwing him to the floor, before making off with the takings. Police think that the owner’s shouts alerted local businesses, and that the arrival of people to see what was going on could have meant the thief got away with little more than some cash. He ran off towards the El Llano area where police believe he had a getaway car and/or driver waiting. The owner is said to be shaken but otherwise unharmed, and police are continuing their investigation to locate his assailant and robber.
